I first met David Grott0, RD at an event hosted by Chicagonista, MJ Tam at the Paint Chicago Red event sponsored by the California Strawberry Commission. There he taught me and the invited guests about the nutritional values of strawberries as well as got to sample some pretty amazing foods highlighting the star of the evening, the California strawberry.
David Grotto is also the author of 101 Optimal Life Foods, a contributor Men's Health Magazine, Web MD and now a "Good Life Guru" for balanced eating for the Hershey's Moderation Nation website and campaign.
Alongside other "gurus" like the Cooking Channel's Kelsey Nixon, blogger Rene Ross, health and fitness expert, Chris Freytag and professional softball player, Jennie Finch, David shares his experiences, expertise and even recipes for balanced and enjoyable eating.
